"- Graham Marsh words are not enough, said the quality of the golf course here.

For lovers of adventure seeking adrenaline activity, Sabah offers some of the world's most extraordinary sensations. My scariest experience, only because I'm a good swimmer, is Padas River rafting (river of grade 3). In trying to negotiate the rapids along this raging river for a distance of 5 km, to enjoy the breathtaking view from the surrounding jungle t. However, be warned, do not take your eyes off the rapids and waves too long!

Let me start with my favorite place and definitely not to be missed if you are visiting Borneo, Mt. Kinabalu (4093 m). The top of Borneo and the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia. This mountain is sacred to the people. Thousands from around the world have come to its peak. At the foot of this mountain is Kinabalu National Park, a botanical paradise where rare plants are found: rare orchids, Nepenthes pitcher plants and Rafflesia, the largest flower in the world.

7. Danum Valley Rain Forest third
If nature is close to your heart, then this next destination, I will present is a must visit, Danum Valley. Danum Valley is located deep in the rainforest of Borneo where nature is at its most pristine.
